Abstract
Betalactamase activity was studied in 142 non-tuberculosis mycobacteri al strains. The distribution according to species was as follows: four M. avium, 14 M. chelonae, 10 M. fortuitum, 53 M. gordonae 55 M. kansa sii. The spectrum of hydrolysis of the betalactamases was screened usi ng an acidimetric method and the characterization was performed by ana lytical isoelectric focusing.
